The Barfords of Belton range were taken on by Stothert and Pitt when Barfords were shut down around 1980.
They developed uprated products as well.
Sadly they folded and the production rights were bought by one of their Directors who set up Mortimer Vibroll. They don't make Dumpers any more but still make their own range of small hand operated Vibratory rollers and other products.

In my post above I mentioned Mortimer Vibroll. Here is one of their products, a Power Barrow.
Designed and made in England..A few villages away from me in Cottesmore. The huge airbase once home to squadrons of Harriers is now Army.

Nice to see Mortimer Vibroll is still on the go.

I've have one of the those, it must be a later model as it has a PH2 engine.
